Leadership Studies

About the Program

Winthrop University’s Leadership Studies minor enriches the college experience by developing and enhancing leadership skills
for highly talented and motivated students. Students design and create a global
service project to complement their academic and career goals. This program
creates a community of learners who pursue leadership opportunities while
acquiring, sharpening, and using new leadership skills.

Students will have an enhanced knowledge and
understanding of specific leadership theories, concepts, and models, preparing
them for leadership responsibilities in their careers, in their community, and
in the world.

“Leadership means motivating a group and encouraging its members to grow, to challenge themselves, and to move forward. Leadership encompasses understanding how to work with diverse groups of people and understanding how each one fits in your organization.”

~ André Isaac

“I communicate with diverse populations, deal with pertinent issues concerning the students and people of Rock Hill and understand the importance of giving back to those who gave you the opportunity to serve.”
